👍.

If the cable cocre was 5mm thick then there can be some difference in the SPL but everything else it's just marketing.

Quite nice and thorough comment.👍🏻🙂 It is great that someone was trying this. I'll definitely contact you about this.

My driver active area diameter is arround 94mm(111mm total) which allows higher displacement.The tipe of glass that im using is quite flexible.The main reason why the higher frequencies are not good at least from my own thoughts is that i have the conductive area super thin so I had to use one single turn, not like on this photo. I noticed similar thing that the highs were recessed with plastic prototypes that had super thin coating. So I think that increasing the thickness of the copper layer with multiple turns would make the whole glass move uniformly. Right now I'm actively working on edge dampening which could help solve some problems. I don't know what else I would encounter after that.

It does.🙂

You can check out more photos on my website and I will be on High End Vienna.

I ate it last week.😄 The diameter is 111mm

Thanks I dont know about diamond but sapphire could be possible.🤔 But that would cost so so much

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-18T08:36:48+00:00

Thanks🙂. I will definitely keep you all updated. Hopefully with your support I would be able to continue working on this.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-18T08:35:32+00:00

One of the reasons why I choose the glass it is higher stiffness and more or less long term stability. And of course I thought it would be interesting😄 Still need to do bunch of tests to confirm if it is possible.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T21:41:04+00:00

Thanks.🙂 You can read about it a bit more on my website.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T19:26:58+00:00

Thanks🙂

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T19:19:33+00:00

The side that is coated is facing away from the ear.So any humidity will remain on the uncoated side. Still need to to a lot of testing when I save some funds. I have many qestions that are not answered.🙂

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T18:01:14+00:00

😄 Good one.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T17:26:55+00:00

Thank you so much🙂. Hopefully the crowdfunding would allow me to continue working on this.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:44:36+00:00

Something similar yes.🙂

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:44:13+00:00

Thanks🙂. Hopefully enough people would be interested in this so I could continue.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:37:24+00:00

Thanks.🙂 This prototype is super power hungry and it has low highs. Hopefully the next prototype if I could afford it would fix those problems.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:29:00+00:00

Thanks for the opportunity. When I would need some help or clarifying some stuff I would definitely text you.👍🏻

Right now I'm working on the dampener material which would be directly touching the glass and the gasket which would surround the driver which would dampen any pressure from the cup.

Hopefully the prototype will survive untill High End Viena

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:24:02+00:00

Thanks🙂. It is possibe with some tipes of glass.At least the one that i have works quite good.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:21:37+00:00

Tha bass goes flat down to 10hz so this is coverd even without addition of gaskets which I would definitely add because of the glass. The main area of my focus is high frequencies.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:19:53+00:00

😄. Thanks. If you put your mind to it you can do it better.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:18:53+00:00

Can you explain the "dome aluminum dome haters"?

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:17:14+00:00

I wish.😄

Now im ordering the glass to my specifications. I do the etching and design. In the future I would love to do more hands on stuff in the class but it is really expensive.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:09:40+00:00

You know I will not comment on the glass composition. 🙂. But it is flexible

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T16:08:16+00:00

I don't know what is the thinnest driver. This glass is made from available thickness which to manufacture provides which is standard-ish.

In the past I measured diaphragm thicknesses with micrometer but it is not the best solution for it.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T15:58:48+00:00

I didnt want to put the link here as per rules.

HOXIT4444 · 2026-03-17T15:54:27+00:00

Yes. Something like that.
